OUR MESSAGE – WHAT WE BELIEVE

1. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
    (Romans 3:23)

  • sin is the term God uses for man’s violations of His law.
  • the glory of God – God desired man to reflect His holiness.
  • man has violated God’s laws, and this sin has destroyed what God desired for man.
  • this is not a small issue, but an eternal issue. Man’s sin has condemned him for eternity.
  • man because of his own sin stands judged before a holy God.

2. God commandeth his love towards us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.
    (Romans 5:8)

  • God’s love moved Him to do something about this condemned condition of man.
  • Jesus Christ came to the earth.  God’s law would accept His life in exchange for ours.  This is why Jesus went to the cross.
  • It is hard to understand all of this, yet the Bible says it is so.
  • this is not a small issue, but an eternal issue. Man’s sin has condemned him for eternity.
  • man because of his own sin stands judged before a holy God.

3. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
    (Romans 10:13)

  • God’s provision for us is the most important issue of life. Imagine, Jesus Christ dying on the cross in your place.  This truth will bring one of a few responses.
    ◦ Not for me!  I don’t believe it.  Not for me! I am not that bad.  “Wrong”
    ◦ Sounds good, I think we all should go to Heaven.  “Wrong Again”
  • The Bible says, one needs to call upon the name of the Lord.  That means they need to ask the Lord to save them personally.  “God I need to be saved!”

4. With the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth of confession is made unto salvation.
    (Romans 10:10)

  • God desires each individual to believe this wonderful truth in their heart, and then ask God to save them personally.  This means that Jesus’ death on the Cross is applied to their sin debt.  One is then saved from their sin. Forgiven!

5. If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
    (Romans 10:9)

  • Salvation is not what we can do for God, it is what God has done for us.  We need to accept it and believe it in our hearts.  How wonderful to know that “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
  • What is the end for those who are not saved?  They are short of the glory of God.  They cannot enter into the kingdom of God.  Luke 16:23 tells us the end of such a man….. “in hell he lifted up his eyes”…..
